Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal+ Cordless Vacuum Cleaner – Powerful Cordless Stick Vacuum for Pet Hair, Carpet & Hard Floors
Clean floors, furniture, stairs, and hard-to-reach areas with the Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal+ Cordless Vacuum Cleaner, a powerful cordless stick vacuum engineered for whole-home deep cleaning. Designed with Dyson’s Motorbar™ cleaner head, anti-tangle hair removal technology, and up to 60 minutes of runtime, the V10 Animal+ is built to handle pet hair, dust, and everyday debris across both carpet and hard floors.
With 30% more suction than the Dyson V8, three cleaning modes, and the ability to quickly convert into a handheld vacuum, the Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal+ is a strong choice for homes that need cordless convenience without giving up serious cleaning performance.
Overview
The Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal+ is a premium cordless vacuum cleaner designed for households that want strong suction, flexible reach, and easy conversion from floor vacuum to handheld mode. Its slim, lightweight body makes it easier to maneuver around furniture, clean stairs, and reach ceilings, while Dyson’s cyclone system and advanced filtration help capture fine dust and allergens.
This model is especially well suited for pet owners, thanks to its Motorbar™ cleaner head that helps remove long hair and pet hair while reducing brush-roll tangles, plus a dedicated Hair screw tool for upholstery, stairs, and tight spaces.

Why It Stands Out
The Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal+ hits a strong middle ground between raw power and cordless convenience. Compared with older Dyson cordless models, it offers more suction than the Dyson V8, longer runtime, and improved pet-hair handling. It is also versatile enough to function as both your primary floor vacuum and your quick-grab handheld for furniture, stairs, and spot messes.
For buyers comparing cordless vacuums, this model is especially appealing if you want:
a Dyson cordless vacuum for pet hair
a lightweight stick vacuum with strong suction
a vacuum that converts to handheld
a cordless vacuum for both carpet and hard floors
a vacuum with anti-tangle brush roll technology
